Many times we work with companies that have no budget for stock photography, or don’t see the value in it. When you can’t afford photography, and stock photography prices seem obnoxious, take a look at these free stock photos that don’t necessarily have that “stock” look. Check out these eight free stock photo resources:

A personal favorite of beautiful free stock photos. Most of the shots have brilliant composition. Unsplash is very much a lively community; you can save your favorite photos, as well as artists and companies. I highly recommend!

Another comprehensive library of free stock photos, they also sport a photoshop plugin that you can use to automatically fill in photos into placeholders. However, when I searched for ‘husky’, nothing came up. This made me sad. Download process is long and annoying, takes about three clicks to get to the image.

Alas, no husky photos. -1. Download of these free stock photos is simple and straight forward. The shots are nicely composed, however they are lacking in a comprehensive library that many of the others have. Still, it’s a good place to find unique shots at no cost.

This free stock library is hilarious. I won’t deduct points for not having any husky photos, only because these photography options are strangely unique. If you’ve been around the advertising block and/or are a traditional ‘mad men’, you’ll remember these types of shots in many of your stock photography catalogs. Remember those?
